Keep Carnaby’s Flying – Ngoolarks Forever
Ngoolarks have connected Noongar families for thousands of years. Now we are in danger of losing them forever.
Keep Carnaby’s Flying – Ngoolarks Forever is a new community empowerment program. Working together with local governments, NGOs, and Aboriginal organisations and Traditional Custodians, we will guide revegetation activities and protect foraging habitat, roosts and vegetation corridors across Perth, to support the survival of our beloved black cockatoos.
Discover how you and your Friends group can help keep Ngoolarks flying forever.
Our Guest Speaker
Professor Kris Warren will be our guest speaker.
Kris has worked in the field of conservation medicine for 25 years, and is based on the College of Science, Health, Engineering and Education at Murdoch University. Her research focuses primarily on determining the ecological drivers of disease and the role that disease plays in population declines of threatened wildlife species.
